Take Dicky Stockton in the NJ Conference. 11 humans, active coaches corner, $3,300-ish in cash this go around. Classes are balanced, but I think the prior coach had ghosted a couple years, so not sure how good the returning talent is. A salesman I am not.

NJ: we have money! (USA South has more)
Minn: We have Aejones! (who has won 1 tourney game in 6 seasons... USA South won 11 last season)

Yeah, I went there!!!

...

all in good fun

...

But in all honestly, you can't really go wrong, Yanks. Join somewhere and have fun. Would love to see you take a USA South squad of course. You'll recognize some of our coaches from Crum as 4 of us have teams ranked in the top 10 there right now and who you were 0-2 against in non-con.. so the way I see it, you have some losses to avenge!!!

As a coach in the NJAC, one of the "mid-majors", I'd like to see some of the other mid-major conferences continue to beef up as well (esp. USA, CCIW) to challenge the long-standing "Big 4". So you can be part of the revolution (i.e. USA, CCIW) or join the old-guard Big 4 conferences (Minny, Upstate, Midwest, Michigan)

Ooooh...can't believe you went there, jsa. Hopefully aejones will come on here and regulate. But, if we're being honest, he definitely has strayed a bit from his usual championship winning ways in Wooden. But, I think that just further demonstrates the difficulty of winning in Minnesota (and Wooden in general). And that's yet another reason to join Minnesota...it's a challenge even aejones struggles with!

CCIW still has 2 openings....1 in the North, where you can get beat down by national champion Elmhurst twice a year, and 1 in the South, where you can get beat down by national champion Elmhurst once a year. North Central has 8 seniors and 2 juniors. Northland has 2 seniors and 2 juniors.
